Chains of Eternity is EverQuest II's ninth expansion and we recently had the opportunity to take a tour of some of the new content that players will discover when it launches. Check it out and then leave us your thoughts in the comments.

As we were waiting for the run through of Chains, we were told that long-time subscribers are being gifted with some terrific new veterans’ rewards in the form of a variety of potions, “unattuners” which will allow players to remove the account lock on items to resell or trade, and a new display case that will give players the ability to sell more items at the broker.

Oh, Everquest 2, my love and my very annoying friend!

If it not was because of that I am missing 60-100 AA's (which will take me about a month to get, farming same dungeons, over and over again) and that the game is a FPS killer (even with a monster computer) and that Prosieben Sat1 is messing it up for EU players and don't have SOE All Acess (worst loss ever!)....I would get this expansion and play it with my heart! Sigh! :(

Dont play this game anymore but thought I should point out that you get 2 boosts up to 280 AA (enough to level up past 90) with the expansion.

Wait? What??? Do we finally get to play old chars without gear locked? I uninstalled the moment i found out i was naked after the f2p transfer after 5 years of subscription. Can anyone confirm this news?

The vet reward items let you unattune soul bound gear to pass to alts, nothing to do with the f2p stuff.

They are removing the coin cap on f2p though.

yep, you still have to unlock gear you had on previous to the f2p conversion in order to wear them again.And the ONLY reason they are removing coin cap is to allow F2Pers to be able to participate in their Krono scheme

It is confusing as Vanguard, I believe, they let you wear the gear you have on.

I'm probably crazy for doing this but I just started up EQII for the first time. The combat is tough to adjust to after playing TSW and GW2 all year but it appears to be an ok sacrfice for the amount of content available. Will play Free until I near the lvl cap.

they dont let you wear the equip you had on if it was not in the F2P tier. its unequiped and placed in your inventory bags. to reequip it you must resub or buy unlockers.

If they didnt remove the ability to purchase expansions with station cash, and the ability to purchase a membership with station cash, I might have come back when they had triple station bonus cash last week. As it stands, probably will never play again.

The level cap was 90 in Sentinel's Fate, 2 expansions ago. Since then the cap got raised to 92 in the second half of Destiny of Velious, and now it is getting raised to 95.

unheard of!

cant really fault them on this, 30 bucks for a year sub is a little insane.

I think that they should pt expansions back on as station cash though, but inflate the SC price on them, make it something like 8000 SC. A nice discount for those that buy a lot of 3x station cash but no so little that they cant profit.

Woah, really? That is awesome! Too bad that ever good game is getting released now in November. Might considering coming back, BUT again, All Acess is what I am missing. I am currently playing Vanguard, so All Acess would be perfect! Darnit! :(

I've got to admit the screenshots look great, I'm pretty impressed how they look in fact. If only they would work on the engine performance and update older zones I'd be interested in trying EQ2 again.

Umm they have updated Freeport and were soon to update qeynos when I played last. I can only laugh at the people who complain they don't get everything for free if they cancel their subscription. Good thing they allow people to keep their subscriptions and be able to obtain everything the game has to offer content wise.
